The user must fill in the necessary fields such as Vendor, Description, City, Prov/State, Country, Zip/Postal Code, Terms, and Currency.

If all necessary fields are not filled in, the user will be prompted for this information when they perform a save.

Once the proper fields have been entered and saved, the user can find this Vendor along with other Vendors in the Vendor Lookup screen.
